How We Helped
With a mixed fleet it was imperative for RC Wiley to have a simple way to monitor each asset according to its unique schedule. Link-X allowed RC Willey to establish proper PM schedules by specific vehicle & asset type. The Link-X platform also provides real time data into each PM schedule allowing the fleet manager to monitor and ensure maintenance policy compliance across multiple locations. For defects identified via DVIR or PM, our RO tracking and approval process allows RC Willey to quickly turn issues into a completed repair. With the Link-X platform RC Willey has been able to reduce R&M expenses and maximize fleet utilization by keeping trucks on the road and out of repair shops!
